The amount deducted by any discount/promotion/privilege and AOT Burn Point are excluded from the Point calculation.
- The Points are calculated on a per transaction basis and rounded up to the nearest whole number if the decimal more or equal to 0.5 Points, and down to the nearest whole number if the decimal is less than 0.5 Points. For instance, if you spent THB70 at Suvanabhumi Airport, the Application may, at its sole and absolute discretion, issue you 3 Points but if you spent THB55 at Suvanabhumi Airport, the Application, may at its sole and absolute discretion, issue you 2 Points.
- In case of payment in any foreign currency, the Points will be calculated according to the value of the product/service in THB. For instance, if you spend USD3.50 for a service priced at THB100, the Application may, at its sole and absolute discretion, issue you 4 points.
- The Points are issued automatically for any transactions paid via AOT PAY. For payment by cash and credit cards via EDC terminal, you may provide your identifiable personal information related to your AOT Point account (e.g., phone number, QR code) to the merchant in order to earn Points from that transaction.
- The Application may, at its sole and absolute discretion, award you Point for transaction that you actually spend at selected merchants or partners of AOT outside airports. The rate of Point to be awarded is determined solely by selected merchants or partners.

Point Validity
- AOT Point has no expiry date. You may retain your Points as long as your account remains activated.
- In case of no Point-related activity occurs within a calendar year (1st January – 31st December), 100 AOT Points will be deducted from your account as point retention fee on 31st December of that calendar year.
- Points cannot be purchased, resold or transferred, for value or otherwise, under any circumstances.
- Points can only be redeemed for discount exclusively via AOT PAY to eligible merchants and service providers. Under any other circumstances, Points have no cash or monetary value, are not redeemable for cash in any form, and Points shall not be regarded, construed, or used as valuable or exchangeable instruments.
- Points cannot be transferred to/from any other accounts of the Application, under any circumstances.
Point Redemption (“AOT Burn Point”)
- If you comply with all these terms and conditions and have the required number of AOT Points, you may select and redeem applicable vouchers via the Application.

- You may redeem your Points via AOT PAY (“AOT Burn Point”). Every 10 AOT Points can be redeemed as a discount of THB1 only when used at eligible merchants and service providers. You may choose the amount of Points to be redeem and pay for the remaining balance. You may use cash, credit card via EDC terminal or AOT PAY to pay for the remaining balance after the discount. For instance, you redeemed 1000 Points (a THB100 discount) for a product priced at THB100, therefore you do not need to pay anything. In another case, you redeemed 250 Points (a THB25 discount) for a product priced at THB100, therefore you need to pay the remaining balance of THB75 to the merchant using cash, credit card or AOT PAY.
- All redemptions are non-refundable. Redemptions cannot be refunded for Points or cash under any circumstances. No requests for refund of voucher/discount from AOT Burn Point program will be entertained.
